THE REAL MEANING OF D-DAY

Every June 6th, we honor those who gave their lives on the beaches
of Normandy so that freedom would not die. It is only fitting that we put their
sacrifice in perspective if we want to avoid condemning another generation to
world war, one that could destroy human civilization as we know it. With the expansion of the global corporate
Empire that threatens to impose a one-world government of, by and for the
Masters of the Universe, that is a very real threat. Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya,
Syria and Ukraine are just the tip of the iceberg. Unnoticed by most Americans, the US military footprint is in nearly every
country around the world that has yet to submit to the Empire.

The Western world sees WWII as a fight to defeat global fascism. In the
victorious Allied nations they are taught that we made the world safe for
democracy. That claim rings as hollow as the lie that WWI was the “war to end
all war.” All
wars are banker’s wars, fought primarily by the children of the poor and
the middle class. WWII was the inevitable result of the brutal economic conditions
imposed on Germans in the Treaty of Versailles. An oppressed people will always
turn to fascism when they have no democratic alternative. When the Germans chose Hitler as Chancellor,
they condemned themselves and the rest of the world to a bloody period of
struggle for dominance as the fascist government showed the world its full
implications.

Fascism was very popular in the US during WWII prior to the entry to the war.
Americans have never been taught in school that there was an attempt to stage a
military coup against the Roosevelt government by the corporate elite of the
time. This plot was
revealed openly in Congress by a highly decorated Marine Major General.
Congress did not press for the names of the plotters, who were never brought to
justice. They almost certainly included Senator Prescott
Bush, who profited from dealings with the Nazis even as his son risked his
life over the skies of Germany. That son went on to become Director of the CIA,
US President and son of the author of the Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive warfare,
the very policy that made Hitler synonymous with evil in the eyes of the world.
The Bush Doctrine had not been repudiated under a Democratic administration. It
has only morphed into the Obama
Doctrine of proxy wars fought under the pretext of “humanitarian”
intervention and the promotion of “democracy.”

Far from being a war for freedom, WWII was a war for who would become the
winner of the global game of Risk that would leave only one power standing. The
Anglo-American alliance became a tool to defend capitalism against the threat
of the communist alternative, one which had it been allowed to proceed
unchallenged by the military power of the Empire could have become a model of
democracy and economic justice for the world. The USSR squared off with China
and the NATO Empire, only to collapse from the strain of its economic inefficiencies
and the need to expend vast resources to defend itself from Western imperialism
and the advance of corporate Empire.

Let the gruesome images of the bodies littered on the beaches of Normandy serve
as a graphic reminder that allowing injustice anywhere is a threat to justice
everywhere. As such, it is the the sine qua non that enables all wars. If we want to honor the millions who died in
the war to defeat fascism, we will join together in a united international front
against fascism and war. It is the only hope for us to prevent our children
from becoming the tokens in the global game of Monopoly, a zero-sum game where
the winner can only succeed at the expense not only of the vanquished, but
those who are forced to fight war for corporate Empire.

About Us

OUR GOAL: The eradication of war by restoring democracy in America.

OUR MISSION: To challenge the US Congress to put the needs of the people above those of their plutocratic sponsors. We can only establish democracy in America and the world by working together to abolish the "rights" of corporations and those who control them to determine the collective destiny of the Peoples of the United States and of the world.

THE PROBLEM: is not that the American government does not work. It works fine for those who own it, just not for the people of America. It is corporate control of Congress that permits the enslavement of Peoples of other nations and ultimately, Americans as well.

Now that the global economic elite are bringing their tools of subjugation to the United States, we must fight back together to ensure that the hope of government of the People, by the People and for the People does not perish from the Earth.

Together, we can mend the social fabric of a broken nation and assure liberty and justice for all the Peoples of the planet we share.

War and lack of health care are symptoms of the same disease: corporate control of the US government. That is why we must take back America for the people by working to pass a Constitutional amendment to get corporate money out of elections and abolish corporate personhood. This is the essential first step to creating true representative government.

Until Americans learn to fight their common enemy instead of each other, there is no reason to expect real change. We must put aside our differences to fight the imposition of a corporate New World Order if we are going to ensure that our children grow up in a rational, sustainable world where war is but a memory.
